Hi,

First of all, I must thank you all for developing such a good grammar 
correction tool under an open source license.

A few years ago I started looking at developing An Gramadóir, as work had 
already been done for the Welsh language. Unfortunately this project has had no 
development for some time, and the only proprietary checker is fairly limited. 
I did have my eye on LanguageTool, but never got around to doing anything until 
now.

There used to be a tool for converting constraint grammar files in Apertium to 
the xml used in LanguageTool. As described here:
http://wiki.languagetool.org/using-the-rule-converter-gui

This was removed in October 2015. I have tried to compile the last release 
before removal, but I have failed to try to get this working. Is it worth 
pursuing this route, or would I be better off converting this manually?

I must admit I'm quite impressed by the number of rules implemented for Breton, 
a closely related language to Welsh. I have wondered how many of rules apply to 
Welsh, but unfortunately I'm unable to make much sense of the rules.xml as all 
the comments are in Breton, which is a little different, particularly in 
written form!

A few supported and unsupported languages are in the old An Gramadoir svn 
repository, would converting/importing all of these be of any use? I can't 
promise anything, but I may attempt to script some of the process.
